word, with what meaning? Or two words, "everlasting Father", to follow
"mighty God" for )"L GIB.OWR, as we Christians hear it read every Christmas?

Dear All,

Or maybe, "God is against us," since
it is in the context of the coming Assyrians.
Verbs like "strive", "contend" take (m as the following preposition.

I don't understand the issue about one word or two. Isaiah gave
his kids funny names. One kid he named Maher $alal Ha$ baz.
Four separate words, still a name.

How should )l gibbor be translated?
